This is a new series where I tell you of a few stories I have been involved in or heard of first hand. Just something a wee bit different for Sunday afternoons. So I will start with my infamous meeting with Liverpool legend and current coach Kenny Dalglish. Now I deliberately picked the top picture […]

Last week I was invited to Firhill for a Partick Thistle press conference. I decided to take my iPad and see if the filming and editing capacity on it could work for blogs and online news sites. Well I was pleasantly surprised. The whole process was very easy to use and in the end the […]

By Andrew Gibney Twitter: @FrenchFtWeekly Website: http://frenchfootballweekly.wordpress.com/ Why Lille? I’ve always had an interest in all the European leagues but I will be honest until 2005 I’d never heard of Lille. I still remember watching Lille v Manchester United with some friends, obviously wanting the non-English team to win but knowing nothing about them. It wasn’t […]

By Will Lyon Twitter: @wrl1989 Website: www.lyonwill.blogspot.com Why Raith? I have my dad to “thank” for being a Raith fan. He was brought up in a village half way between Kirkcaldy and Dunfermline, but he chose to support the less successful team (*sigh*). I actually grew up in Jersey, but I was made aware of […]

By Chris Rann Twitter: @crstig Website:  www.georgeweahscousin.com Why Southampton? Well…. I was born and bred on the Isle of Wight, which has always been a pretty much 50/50 split between Saints and the blue few, but my mum is from Bootle, and all her family were either diehard Liverpool or Everton fans, subsequently I was […]

    By Danny Last Twitter: @DannyLast Website: www.europeanfootballweekends.co.uk Why Brighton? I’m born and bred in the area. Fans around here are divided into two categories; fans that follow Brighton and go to the games, or fans that support Chelsea, Manchester United, Spurs or Arsenal and don’t go because they pretend they can’t get tickets. I’ve always been […]

This Sunday morning our newspapers were telling us ‘Man Utd Set For Wesley Bid’, ‘Tevez Wants Out’ and ‘Barca Want Cesc’. Wow I have a feeling over the past year I have read these stories about a million times now… Ok big teams want big players I get it, Carlos Tevez hates England I get […]
